Building high-performing teams isn't about mindset, skills, or structure. It's about hiring grown-ups who take responsibility, expect ownership from others, and share both their performance and themselves.
You need grown‑ups who want to behave like grown‑ups, take responsibility, expect ownership, and share themselves and their performance.
When building high-performing teams, what do you prioritize first? Mindset, skill set, structure, or something else entirely?
Thank you, Therese, for this question. And let me, let me tell you that what you need, you need something else entirely. You need people, you need grown-ups who want to behave like grown-ups. So when you want to think about building high-performing teams, start from what kind of team do you want to have? And the greatest learning for me, the more people who want to behave like grown-ups, who want to take responsibility and who expect responsibility and ownership from others and are willing to share, to share themselves, not only their performance, the greater the team is.
